Huge PDF preview: 8 pages per page

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I'm using one main tex file which includes many input{*.tex} commands,
with the following package:
\usepackage[paperwidth=215mm,paperheight=279mm,height=229mm,,width=152mm,tmargin
=25mm,left=38mm]{geometry}
2. I compile
3. The preview PDF is a huge sheet with compiled pages, its like 8 pages
per one page. I nedd to scroll right and left to see all pages.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see one page at a time and only scroll down/up to see pages,
not right or left to see many hidden pages.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
firefox 3.6.3, vista

Please provide any additional information below.
It would be great if the previe if a real PDF file inctead of an image.

Actually, it's not the PDf previe but the Online preview, which is shown on the 
right
side of the tex file.
The exported PDF file is fine.

Ok, glad you were able to get past this. BTW, early on LaTeX Lab was using a PDF
preview, rather than PNG, but the PDF viewer is bulky and doesn't integrate 
well into
the page (issues with z-index for example) and was causing some browser crashes.

I had already on my to-do list to add some additional features to the PNG 
preview,
such as a page selector. Zooming in/out is a good idea, i'll add that in.

Solved.
Actually, this was a problem in my file. It is written in french and some lines 
were
too long which made the page very large.
Now, I use
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
instead of
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}

And now it's ok.

Thanks for your great support.
I've just removed my last comment because i've said that my document was in 
English
but it is actually in French and that's why i had such long line because of 
French
accents not compiled.
Everything is fine now.
